— Hamtaro

Hamtaro (ハム太郎, Hamutaro in Japan) is a male hamster and the main character of the Hamtaro franchise. A happy and energetic hamster, Hamtaro lives out each day in the spirit of friendship and fun, and is always there to lend a helping hand.

Why He's Here to Help You

1. His design is super cute, simple and very well done, and yet it can also be iconic, expressive and animated like when he moves his ears for example.
2. Hamtaro is friendly and kind to everyone he meets and he's often willing to help his friends out when they're in danger, no matter what the scenario is.
3. He's also incredibly brave, fearless and heroic, for example, he saved Penelope from a cat in one of the first episodes.
4. He shares great chemistry with his Ham-Ham friends and his chemistry with Oxnard, Boss and his owner Laura stand out the most.
5. His relationship with Bijou is adorable and outside the anime, their relationship with each other is stronger like in Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak for example.
6. He's a good role model for kids since he can teach children to help their friends out.
7. Like Pikachu and Mickey Mouse, he's probably one of the best known rodent characters in animation history.
8. He's well-voiced by Kurumi Mamiya and Chiara Zanni respectively.

The Only Bad Quality

1. Despite Bijou, Sparkle, Oshare and Barrette developing a crush on Hamtaro (Lapis also kissed him in one episode, but that was simply a thank you kiss so she doesn't count), his innocent nature makes him somewhat clueless about their crush on him and love in general. So, he's got a lot to learn.
